Experimental gyro force feed back

[Julian Rignall]

Noticed this in the assetto_corsa.ini file >

[FF_EXPERIMENTAL]
ENABLE_GYRO=0
DAMPER_MIN_LEVEL=0.0

I turned it on with 1 (I presume its a toggle 0 or 1)

Just ran a few laps at nords in mcclaren gt3,braking and kerbs seem more pronouced and
the FF feels a little stronger (might be a placebo though).

Anyone else tried it out ?

It was talked about in recent Q&A stream. Can't remember details now..

I found this short video >

I'm still unsure as to what exactly it is supposed to be doing.

It is more about what you feel as forces from the wheels (force feedback from wheel gyro forces).

Not something that would viewable in a video but about the way you feel the wheels of car working through force feedback (rotational forces of wheels increase as you go faster).

So you might get more directional stability as you go faster and reduced oscillation of the steering wheel since gyroscopic forces tend to balance those out without additional steering damper (heavier cars might have some kind of steering damper more often than light sporty cars).

Aris (one of devs) mentioned this on forums:

Just to be clear here.
The new Force Feedback is ALREADY available and fixed by default.
The EXPERIMENTAL additional value is to be used mainly by direct servo feedback wheel owners as they need more damping for their wheels in order to stop oscillations

Ah I see, thanks for the info kazereal.
